Almost finished with the work from my extension. Part of that was converting the old tiny kitchen into a downstairs shower room with loo. Just a bit of grouting to go.....then onto next room!!! :D

Thanks Darth...yeah great choice on the towel holder, ended up buying all the bits from next, loo roll holder, hooks, hand towel holder etc..thanks for the advice...ive added some more pics as well. Cheers mate.


to answer mikes question, it took quite a few months as i had to get all the services in place ready for everything to go in. Then I stopped work on the bathroom to fit my kitchen, tile the floors in kitchen and conservatory, and get the kitchen sorted basicallly. If i added up all the days/ evenings spent work on the bathroom i would say about 3-4 weeks. I did have to build all the stud walls, fit 3 doors, lay the wood floor tile, lay the soil and drainage pipes and fit the suite. Im amazed I had the energy....just shows the motivation when you have the girlfriend on your back ! ha!
